| Howdy, Fellers!
|
| Ah, hello there, Junebug.
|
| What ya’ll doing standing on your heads?
|
| Well, after we took you home last night and you kissed us.
|
| We climbed up the door, and opened the stairs
|
| We said our nightshirts and put on our prayers
|
| We turned off the bed and crawled into the light
|
| And all because you kissed us (kissing sound) goodnight
|
| Gosh, fellers, that ain’t nothing. |
| Wait till you’uns hear what happened to me.
|
| I powdered my hair and pinned up my nose
|
| I hung up the bath and I turned on my clothes
|
| I put out the clock and I wound the cat up tight
|
| And all because you’uns kissed me (kissing sound) goodnight
|
| Next evening we felt normal, so we went out again
|
| And we all started kissing
|
| And you know what happened then?
|
| What, June?
|
| I ran up the shade and I pulled down the stairs
|
| I curled up the rug, and I vacuumed my hairs
|
| I just couldn’t tell my left foot from my right
|
| And all because you’uns kissed me (whistling sound) goodnight
|
| I painted the field and I plowed up the shed
|
| I cut up the pigs and I fed ‘em to the bread
|
| And I milked the horse and I saddled up the cow
|
| And all because you’uns kissed me, ooh-wow
|
| We tuned up our teeth and brushed our guitars
|
| We smoked our breakfast and eat some big cigars
|
| We got our uncle loaded and shook hands with our guns
|
| And all because you kissed us, honeybunch
|
| I was so slap-hap-happy, I couldn’t sing them blues
|
| We got so durn mixed up we even put on our shoes
|
| You climbed up the door we opened the stair
|
| I said my nightshirt Jethro: Then you put on your prayers
|
| It was the evening of the night and the sun was shining bright
|
| And all because we kissed (kissing sound) goodnight
|
| Hey, June, how about another kiss, kiss for me?
|
| Yeah, how about one for me too, June.
|
| Now you wait a minute, Homer. |
| It’s my turn.
|
| Now Jethro you had enough.
|
| Aww, now wait a minute fellers. |
| Close your eyes and pucker up and I’ll kiss the
|
| both of you.
|
| (kissing sound)
|
| Hey, June.
|
| Huh?
|
| You need to shave.
|
| What do you mean I need to shave? |
| You just kissed Jethro.
|
| Well, good night! |
